Those of you Upstate New York Genealogy researchers that are working on Rochester, New York , Monroe County and the western part of New York State in general, are very fortunate.

The Monroe County Library System has been hard at work making much of their large genealogy / local history collection available online.  A discussion on one of the recent message boards caught my eye and decided we better review this site again.  See our previous posts about the Rochester Library.

Our friendly librarian, Larry Naukam, of the Monroe County Library in Rochester, NY sent a recent note to inform researchers that their department has been busy at work and will soon be bringing some very exciting research tools on-line.

I have written in the past about this excellent facility, see my previous Blog at: http://ny-genes.blogspot.com/search?q=rochester+directories

Their on-line collection of Rochester Directories now runs from 1827 to 1930, including every single page of every directory that exists, and is available right now. They may be able to add up to 1965 in the future.
